North Korean advanced persistent threat group Lazarus - an entity sanctioned by the U.S. and the United Nations - has emerged with a fresh spear-phishing campaign that exploits Windows Updates to execute a malicious payload, using GitHub as a command-and-control server.
"Email security doesn't get the attention it deserves" because "phishing is not going away and is not getting any less," says Jess Burn, a senior analyst at Forrester. She shares best practices for phishing prevention.
While SEGs (Secure Email Gateways) may claim to protect emails from all possible threats, they unwittingly send infected emails to users, just waiting for them to act. Since the invention of email, phishing has evolved continuously, and hackers have been finding
new ways to infiltrate users’ inboxes and trick...
